Attendify 📸

Attendify is a Facial Recognition Attendance System built using Python, OpenCV (cv2), face_recognition, and Firebase for real-time database integration. This application allows the registration of students with their photos, encodes the facial features, and marks attendance by recognizing the student's face in real-time.

Features ✨

• Add new students with their photos and details.
• Encode and save facial features for recognition.
• Real-time attendance marking using facial recognition.
• Store and retrieve data using Firebase real-time database.
• Upload and download student photos from Firebase storage.
